One person has died in a weather-related crash as a massive winter storm threatens to dump more than a foot of snow in parts of the state.

The Kansas Highway Patrol says 61-year-old Janet S. Devena of
Agra was killed Monday morning when she lost control of her vehicle
on U.S. 36 east of Kensington in the north-central part of the
state. The vehicle hit a field entrance and rolled before coming to
rest on its top.

The patrol says dozens of non-injury slide-off accidents also were reported.

Because of the bad road conditions, dozens of day care centers,
community organizations, colleges and school districts were
canceling classes, including Emporia State University and Kansas
State University's campuses in Manhattan and Salina.
